Each   time   you   fire,   the   shot   number   and   velocity   of   your   last   shot   will   appear   on   the   top   line   of  

the   display   and   your   current   average   velocity   will   appear   on   the   bottom.  

 

Now   let's   say   that   an   odd-ball   velocity   appears,   like   " 6952.3   FPS ".   This   is   an   obvious   error.   You  

can   remove   it   from   memory   by   pushing   the    

NO  

  key.   The   MKIV   XP   will   "back   up"   to   the   previous  

shot.   

 

NOTE :   The   MKIV   XP   needs   one   second   between   shots.   This   is   to   allow   the   smoke   to   clear.   If   you  

fire   too   soon,   the   Chronograph   will   not   record   the   shot.   

 

When   you   are   done   with   your   string,   the   MKIV   XP   will   provide   you   with   a   statistical   summary   of  

your   string.   If   you   have   a   printer   just   push   the    

PRNT  

  key   and   you   will   receive   a   hard   copy   of   you  

string   number,   statistical   summary   and   each   shot.   In   addition,   all   chrono   data   is   held   in   memory  

for   download   to   your   PC.

  to   review   the   desired   string.   If   you   want   to   look   at   the   most   recent   string   push

  again.   The   highest   and   lowest   shot   velocities   and   their   corresponding   shot   numbers   are  

displayed.
